Question 1

upper lower abdominal pain worse with bowl movement. runny stools but wen have firm there are indents. mucus and sometimes blood in stools.

Accepted Answer

May be significant: Abdomenal pain with runny stools in your age group could indicate inflammatory bowel disease(ibd).  Blood in stools is always abnormal.  You need a colonoscopy at the minimum  and this could tell the tale.  It may be something as simple as hemorrhoids, but with runny stools, especially if there is weight loss, is more indicative of ibd.  See a good gastroenterologist or colo-rectal surgeon.

Question 2

severe abdominal pain associated with bowel movement alternating constipation and diarrhea anxiety insomnia weight and apatite loss whats wrong?

Accepted Answer

IBS: Irritable bowel syndrome is likely. Chronic anxiety is complicating the issue. Try to identify offending foods. A gastroenterologist is best qualified to evaluate and treat you and give dietary advice(ex. Fodmap diet) and/or medication. See a psychologist or psychiatrist for stress management. Medication may also be prescribed for short term help.

Question 3

what causes abdominal pain that gets worse with movement?

Accepted Answer

Acute abdomen: Abdominal pain that worsens w/movement is worrisome &amp; needs to be evaluated by surgeon. Get to  ER as soon as possible. You can read this mini-course on acute abdomen http://www.ece.ncsu.edu/imaging/MedImg/SIMS/Module2/GE2_4.html while waiting in ER, not at home.

Question 4

constant severe abdominal pain, left side. worse with movement. any ideas?

Accepted Answer

Sounds urgent: I'm not sure how long this has been going on, but if it's been less than a a week, you should go to an emergency room asap. Even at age 33, diverticulitis is a possibility, as is a tubo-ovarian abscess. If it has present for more than a week, you may be able to sort it out as an outpatient, but don't wait. If primary care not available, go to the ER. Hope this helps!

Question 5

35 y.o.healthy female with abdominal bloat, frequent foul gas and foul bowel movements. most of the time stomach ache after eating also?

Accepted Answer

GI-flatukence: Bloating, belching, foul gas can be from multiple causes: bacterial infection, amebic infection, gallbladder disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and many other diseases of the GI tract. I suggest a GI examination and evalution with blood tests and imaging as well as testing for stool parasites and h, pylori0must be worked up.

Question 6

hello doc, i've been having stomach pain at night with gas, when i wake up in the morning and start my day it slowly goes away as i eat but then when i lay down again to sleep it returns. i hear gas movement noises in my lower abdomen. i've had anxiety si

Accepted Answer

Anxiety: I understand your concern.
“It is NOT what you eat
It IS what is eating you!”
At age 36, stressors of marriage, relationships, parenting, children out of home, work, and unresolved conflicts can cause Anxiety and physical symptoms.
Avoid foods with fiber as those foods can cause gas.
See a psychiatrist for diagnosis and Treatment including Psychotherapy, Meditation, Yoga and Medication .

Question 7

my 5 year old daughter is complaining of "stomach" pain.  no nausea, and her  whole abdomen seems to be tender to the touch. last bowel movement was yesterday. normal appetite. sleeping more than  usual.  no fever.  it's hard to tell what's real & what's

Accepted Answer

Abdominal pain: Is there a histaory of abdominal trauma? What has she eaten or drank today? Regardless, first order is to induce a bowel movement since she hasn't had one today. Observe for another hour or two. If the stomachache worsens, a shift in the location of the pain occurs and/or she develops vomiting or fever, it will be best to have her evaluated at the ed tonight.

Question 8

pain in lower back/abdomen, cramping, stomach pain with nausea during bowel movements. 5 days dihareah & pain, finally solid with same symptoms above?

Accepted Answer

Gastroenteritis: There are multiple possible explanations here. My advice would be to see a doctor if, within the next several days, the symptoms continue despite the resolution of the diarrhea. The inflammation produced by the infecting organism (if this is due to infection) may produce residual inflammation causing the abdominal pain and nausea.

Question 9

it's been 6 days sense i came off my period i still haven't had a bowel movement i'm having lower abdomen pain and i have bloating what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Constipation: Sounds like constipation primarily.  Consider using a mild laxative and increase your fiber intake and hydration.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

You might be: having gastric outlet obstruction.  You need to contact your surgeon immediately.
